Choose From Some Great Coastal San Diego Properties

By William Richardson


California is a huge state with several distinct regions. People who choose to reside in the northern part of the state might never even consider relocating to the southern region. Many of those who live in the middle are perfectly content to stay put in that area. If the southern portion of California intrigues you, and you are contemplating settling there, coastal San Diego properties might interest you. Purchasing real estate on the Pacific Ocean however, will require a substantial outlay of cash.

Only a small percentage of those who dream about settling on a southern California beach can actually do it. Cost prohibits most from making such a relocation a reality. If you are flexible and willing to look into the city of San Diego, CA, you might find some great properties with more affordable price tags. Many of these places will only be minutes from the beach.

California beachfront living is not for everybody. Commutes to work can be difficult, the weather can be volatile, and the relative solitude is not to everyone's taste. A lot of people prefer more traditional neighborhoods and the way seasons transition from summer to winter in other parts of the country.

There are a lucky minority who have the means to enjoy the lifestyle that comes with the sun and surf. You might be a devoted fisherman with plenty of free time to hunt trophy bass or halibut out on the deep sea. Athletes, such as surfers, will certainly be able to take advantage of the famous waves of San Diego's beaches. If walking, running or riding on the beach is something you love, this may be the place for you.

Owning real estate on the southern California coast usually comes with a hefty price tag. You may be one of the lucky few that inherited property from a wealthy relative, but most will have to be prepared to part with several million dollars, at the least, for the privilege of calling one of these beaches home. Of course, these homes will come with every luxury imaginable.

There are usually plenty of beachfront condominiums to pick from if you are not ready to put down several million dollars. Condos in this area are still pricey, but more affordable than their single family neighbors. You will also have a lot of the same amenities without paying quite the same high price. Exercise rooms, pools, spas, valet and housekeeping services may be included in the price of a beach condo.

You may love the beach but not be ready to make it your permanent home. In this case, planning a California coastal vacation may be a great idea. There are usually a wide assortment of beachfront rentals to choose from. What you pay will probably depend a lot of how long you are staying, where the property is located, and what all comes with your rental package. You can even invite several friends along to help with the costs and the clean up.

Southern California is a great place to live or to visit. Whether you opt for owning a luxurious beachfront estate or renting a cozy ocean bungalow, you will surely enjoy your time on the Pacific coast.
